The Extraordinary Apothecary at Hogwarts

Gently unscrew the frosted glass stopper, and the tip of the stick smoothly slides across the top of the small cheese that has not been collected along the horizontal line.

The surface tension of the bright spherical droplets is instantly broken, twisted into a soft trickle like unicorn tail hair, and guided by the magic wand into the mouth of the bottle.

Sissy withdrew her attention and looked around while putting the small bottle back in her inner bag, "Where did Professor Sprout go today, why didn't I see her?"

"The golden bark tree burst into tears for no reason last night," Phillips pouted towards the outside of the greenhouse, "here, the professor is taking care of it alone in the cubicle over there!

And she told us not to get close to it. The golden bark tree is not easy to deal with when it loses its temper. It flicks its leaves and sprays poisonous needles at every turn, and the tears it cries are also highly corrosive. "

Having seen the golden bark tree a few times before, Sissy glanced at where it used to be, and sure enough it was removed together with the copper cage it was kept in.

The empty wooden frame with a few eye-catching gold thorns stood there pitifully, and the surrounding plants were also damaged, and the state of the branches and leaves was changed to some kind of broken Syrian style.

It was obvious what that curmudgeon in the Golden Tree had done when he was crying and raving.

"It's quite difficult to provoke. Fortunately, it's still a juvenile tree less than two feet (61 centimeters)." Sissy shook her head slightly.

If it was as big as Whomping Willow, Hogwarts would probably be on vacation again.

"Then please pass this on to Professor Sprout, the antidote to the venom of the Ink Mantra venom, I don't plan to come over tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

"No problem, ah, is there such a potion? It looks like a marshmallow in a bottle." Phillips put the bottle into a thick drawstring bag.

"It's a golden-red flocculent precipitate, um—it's something like cotton wool, remember to shake it evenly before using it. Hey, it's starting to rain outside again."

After a short prelude, the sound of pattering rain outside the window quickly turned into a sonata style allegro.

"Did you forget to bring your umbrella too?" Phillips carefully walked around the fragile little mushroom on tiptoe. castle."

"No, I brought it. It's enough for the two of us. You can wear it back quickly. Once you catch a cold, you'll spray steam for two hours after taking the medicine. More will come out of it."

As a mobile storage room with dozens of potion bottles, how can you not prepare such basic items, right?

Although there is really no umbrella in the bag.

But it doesn't matter, you can use local materials.

Sissy stood under the eaves, her arms half-bent and stretched out her wand, the rain curtain instantly submerged half of the wand vertically.

The first spell intercepted the raindrops passing by, and gathered three water balls the size of sleepy beans.

The second sentence is to control the water polo to draw a complete circle with the top of the head as the center, and grind the water body into a transparent streamer, which is connected end to end to form a curved surface, similar to a bottomless short cylinder.

Then raise your wrist and point directly upwards, forming a low pressure in the center, pulling one side of the streamer upward along the eggshell-shaped arc, and the water curtain is evenly stretched like blowing bubbles, and the upper circle gradually shrinks, slowly forming Dome shaped.

"Come on, if it's too small, I'll make it bigger." Sissy held the small handleless umbrella with her magic wand, and stepped onto the stepping stones in the rain.

The rainwater dripped on the rainwater, and then flowed down a small groove on the edge of the water curtain in streams, like a small umbrella with a long tail dragging the floor.

So much for the spell in the book.

And she made a small change on the "tail" by using the Coanda effect, so that the flow direction can be stably moved downwards without bothering to maintain control, so as to prevent the falling water column from splashing on the trouser legs when the rain is too heavy.

Lightweight and easy to use, but this umbrella also has limitations.

It must be used in conjunction with clear water like springs on sunny days, and it is not suitable for a thin layer of water curtain that will evaporate quickly under the hot sun.

So it is a genuine "umbrella" and cannot be used as a "rainbow umbrella".

"It's such a special umbrella, I want to learn it too." Phillips poked the edge of the transparent umbrella with his little finger curiously, and the water flowed around his fingertips and flowed away on its own.

Sissy slowed down and thought about it, "Hmm... I saw it in the "Compendium of Practical Spells for Families" in the spell area, in the second half of Chapter 3, about page 270.

It's just that the collection of this book seems to be small, and I have already returned it. I don't know if you can borrow it. "

"I'll look for it a few more times, and I'll be able to squat sooner or later."

"Then I wish you good luck." Sissy put away her umbrella and said goodbye. She got up too early, and there was still some time before the transformation class, so she just went back to review the content of the goblin rebellion to deepen her impression.

She couldn't attend the History of Magic class, but Professor Dumbledore didn't grant her the right to be exempted from the exam. Fortunately, she was in the examination room, so she borrowed any class notes, and they were all quite complete.

When Snape saw her coming in, he dived into the storage room, and quickly slipped back to the study, only raising his eyelids the whole time, not bothering to complain.

This storage room is getting more and more crowded nowadays.

There are all kinds of things stuffed in it that she doesn't know when she will use them. Every time Sissy goes to Hagner or the greenhouse, she can always come back with some miscellaneous things.

But no matter in terms of type or quantity, Hagena had to bring back the most materials.

Especially the unicorn hair, which occupies the top spot by an overwhelming advantage. I have never counted exactly how many hairs I have saved, but I have saved five solid bundles.

What are those things for so many, and when will they be used up?

Fortunately, the discharge is orderly, alas, squeeze as much as you can, just leave a path where you can step on your feet.

In the first grade class, Sissy is usually among the last few to enter the classroom.

As far as the distance between the Ravenclaw lounge and the classrooms is concerned, it is absolutely impossible not to allow enough time.

Even if there is an empty period without classes, few people are willing to risk their lives to challenge the door knocker. The eagles would rather spend one or two class hours to go to the library to read books, and then return to the classroom early to chat for a while and relax.

Just as Sissy moved her chair and sat down, Helen had already leaned over, "Hey, Sissy, I haven't seen you wearing a bowknot headband recently, and candy hairpins too, and why do you always tie your hair in a bunch? How cute!"

"I—to save trouble, how convenient it is to grab it." Sissy hesitated for a while when she said.

is that so?This should be the reason.

Helen frowned suspiciously, "You didn't think so before. By the way, have you read the Daily Prophet these days?"

"No, I never made a decision." Sissy responded with disgust without even thinking about it.

The Daily Prophet, a puppet newspaper that is controlled by the Ministry of Magic and never takes the accuracy of its articles into consideration, let's see what it does.
